FMCA rallies and conventions

FMCA members like to get together and have fun. Rallies and conventions held throughout the United States and Canada are occasions to do just that. Making new friends and reminiscing with old ones are but a few of the activities prevalent at these events.

Chapter rallies
FMCA chapters — more than 475 of them — hold rallies throughout the year. They can be casual campground get-togethers or fully planned events with games, catered meals, entertainment and visits to local attractions. Many are held on weekends and at locations not far from the chapter members’ home bases, thus giving them the chance to use their motorhomes more often and without traveling great distances. Chapter rally activities vary, and often center on a theme. But all activities promote fun and fellowship among attendees.

Area rallies
Each of FMCA’s 10 areas holds an area rally annually, where members gather to socialize, view exhibits, attend seminars and enjoy quality entertainment. Area rallies are organized by FMCA areas and area associations.

International conventions
FMCA’s semiannual conventions are organized by the FMCA national office. They are much larger in size and scope than area rallies and chapter rallies. Attendees enjoy a motorhome exhibition — major motorhome manufacturers and dealers display approximately 1,000 motor coaches — and hundreds of booths offer RV components and accessories. Informative seminars, social activities and professional entertainment also are part of the conventions.

At FMCA rallies and conventions, the friendship and camaraderie are perhaps the biggest and most important displays of all.
